Oddities of Life

Strange is this world we live in,

Where people are connected in an online space,

And disconnected in a real one…

Strange is this world we live in,

Where compassion and empathy are worthless

And money is valued…

Strange is this world we live in,

Where honesty is ridiculed,

And sycophancy is appreciated

Strange is this world we live in,

Where powerful receive generous help

And helpless, needy are left on their own… 

Strange is this world we live in,

Where there is no fear of death,

And only mull over present life…

Strange is this world we live in,

Where attachments are based on money,

And love is thrown out of the window…

Strange is this world we live in,

Where a ray of light shines over every being

And still the heart is filled with darkness…

Strange is this world we live in,

Where one feels happy to see other lost and empty,

And sad to see other’s happiness…

Strange is this world we live in,

Where hope is trivial,

And despair is significant…

Strange is this world we live in,

Where nothing will last forever,

And still living like there is no end!
